How refreshing watching Spuds players getting clattered in tackles. Win the personal battles and win the game.
Huth would be pleased.

That tackle/foul by Hairy Faes effectively had the gobby nob looking over his shoulder all game. (And he got the ball)

Exactly. Clatter him early and he’s quiet.

Weak Cankles, wee Kane.

Actually this is a really good thread. We’ve been saying all season how we’re weak and need toughening up a bit.

Kristiansen just attacks anything that comes within 20 metres of him. But without fouling the player. Just being aggressive. Love it.

He totally nullified Mahrez twice in the CL. He was 19 at the time. Proper full back.

It's great to see the change of attitude, mental strength and confidence in the team!

Two goals against Villa were the result of aggressive pressing, and yesterday we continued in the same vein! Both Faes and Ndidi broke up Tottenham moves which led to goals (even though Barnes' first was chalked off).

Iheanacho's and Barnes' goals yesterday were the result of increased confidence: they both cleverly 'passed' the ball into the bottom corner. They both didn't blast it, they both took their time over it, and they both succeeded! Success breeds confidence! It shows what confidence can do to individual players and to a team!

I agree with all of that. Just need to get the Vards firing.again.

I'm afraid our greatest player is approaching the end of the line.

One last hurrah!!

Jamie looked like he was enjoying himself after he came on yesterday. He’s still got a couple of goals left in him.

Said the same earlier in the Season lost the effectiveness of pace that gave him the edge
